Sinterklaasintocht Schagen

Sinterklaasintocht Schagen

‘Hoog bezoek in Schagen: Sinterklaas arriveert per luchtballon!’

No steamboat or horse, but a hot air balloon! This year, Sinterklaas is opting for a very special arrival in Schagen. On Saturday 21 November, Sinterklaas will land at the Muziektuin, where none other than Karin Bloemen will be waiting for him.

Music, dance and a special arrival

This year, the Sinterklaasintocht will take place in the Muziektuin at the Loet for the first time. And that choice was no coincidence, as music is central to this edition. From 14:45, musicians of all ages will provide an entertaining pre-show. The dancers from dance school Rebounce will also show off their dance skills. And then it is time to wait for the big moment: the arrival of Sinterklaas and his Pieten by hot air balloon!

Karin Bloemen welcomes Sinterklaas

This year, Sinterklaas is in for another surprise. Not the mayor or an alderman, but singer and cabaret artist Karin Bloemen will welcome him to Schagen. Karin grew up in Schagen and is returning to the city for this special occasion. With such a well-known Schagen local, Sinterklaas could not wish for a warmer welcome!
